Introducing the Pi Day Cross-Stitch Connections! A series of 14 NYT-Connections-style puzzles themed around cross-stitch and sewing*!

I'll be posting a new puzzle once every day from March 1ˢᵗ to 14ᵗʰ. You can catch them here (and on Cohost!), and if you'd prefer to be emailed a puzzle every morning, you can sign up for that here.

Feel free to share these with friends who aren't on tumblr, too-- I'll be posting the puzzles on all the sites that I'm on, but I know a decent chunk of puzzle fans are busy leading more enlightened lives off of social media. ;)

*Why are the Pi Day puzzles cross-stitch-themed and not math, you ask? Because I felt like doing cross-stitch ones this year. But who knows? Maybe next year's puzzle set will be math-themed 🥧

#cross stitch #embroidery #connections #nyt connections #made by me #pi day puzzles 2024 #it's puzzle time 😎😎😎#fun fact: on cohost the puzzles can be embedded into the posts themselves!#my favorite feature of the site so far #pi day puzzles

Kaksi pienit käärijät on nyt valmis, jee 😊

Edit: of course this was wrong 😅 so let's pretend I wrote this instead: kaksi pientä käärijää ovat nyt valmiita 😃

Same in English: two more done 👍

#käärijä #it's crazy it's party it's very silly embroidery #käärijä fanart #my stuff #lovely finnish people please tell me if i said that right #minä yrittän #this current embroidery rush is so puzzling to me #i hated doing this before discovering i could make käärijä patches #now i cant stopp 🤣#and yes #vacation käärijä has a shirt because i didnt want to do the tattoo

Suggest your weirdest ass hobbies to me. Writing is shit right now, I need a distraction from it (and the rest of life) but I also suck at everything

#Oh god #I tried crocheting????#I mean it's practically math #It's math and puzzle solving and I am very bad at both #I know it's not actually math #But my brain put it in the same box #And now it is trying to make me hate it #I pretty much learned how to do the first. Like. Row thing.#And then my friend (and you tube) said “now turn your work” and I said WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT EVEN MEAN #I am very visual and it is hard for me to learn on something that just.... Looks the fucking same from start to end (The Yarn)#So clearly knitting is also out #I have considered embroidery but it seems very similar lol #Please don't say calligraphy because my handwriting is SHIT

Okay okay. I've made some more puzzles of my embroideries now, and I've play tested these and they are fun! I definitely made my first jigsaw puzzle WAY TOO HARD. I learned my lesson.

Play them here: https://www.jigsawplanet.com/pardalote/embroidery

And tell me if you haaaate any of them :D (Apart from Mr.289.piece which is at least 2 hours of time wasting hahaomg so you don't need to tell me about him.)

I am a dragon and my hoard of choice(curse) is craft hobbies. Unfortunately that translates to 'no finish! Only collect!'

#outside of digital art and sculpting i really cannot day i have finished much of anything in my life. except like. a space puzzle.#doll customization? got that. crochet? got that. diamond dotz? got that. painting sewing embroidery.#knitting quilting perler beads pastels and sculpting and everything in between. ive got so much yarn.#like 80% of my worldly possessions are crafts items.#probably #idk if youd consider this a flex but i dont. its a curse. i am gofted with the knowledge of how and the understanding of why-#but not the motivation or dicipline to follow through to the end once ive obtained craft materials #curse my fricking adhd #luka rambles #i am especially weak to gem stones and sparkly galaxy themes so. thats another point to Dragon

I'm so excited! I ordered a bunch of new puzzles from my favorite puzzle company, Eurographics Puzzles.

The puzzles I got were:

Ukraine - Globetrotter

Beautiful Lake Louise

RMCP Morning Campfire

The Four Seasons (Variant 3) [Alphonse Mucha]

Young Girl in Green [Tamara De Lempicka]

Can't wait for for the art piece puzzles because I love those art styles, and I'm excited for the Ukraine Globetrotter one too because I like Ukrainian history/geography. The other 2 are vintage Canadiana ads (which makes sense considering Eurographics is a Canadian company) which I like because they're vintage style amd because my mom's Canadian so it makes me think of her :) (also helps that the last 2 were on sale!)

#kvietka rambles #yes yes I know I have a lot of old people hobbies /sarcastic #like collecting stamps - puzzles - cross stitching/embroidery / crocheting

hey legit tho, if I can figure out my streaming setup for it, I think it’d be fun to do a baking stream on twitch sometime

this depends on a lot of things ofc (streaming software running on my old laptop, for one) but I have Evil Plans™ that I’ve been thinking about for a while, and hopefully somehow I can get them to happen

#remember that cake I said I was going to bake...#👀#personal #see my problem is I have too many hobbies #things I would love to do on stream:#embroidery‚ cooking‚ putting together a puzzle #pinning insects‚ doing something with perler beads maybe? (I have a bunch of them)#reading books to you because I've got fun books that are hard to find (like the gay lighthouse keeper one)#(I do see your asks about that one‚ I just haven't had the brainpower to word a response sorry)#like idk I just love making things and I'd love to do stuff sometime because I think it'd be fun #but baking is the priority atm #gotta get a kitchen setup somehow #hmmm

Dear diary:

Today I had a pretty relaxing day. Yesterday I went out with a friend (we had dinner and watched a midnight parade) untill pretty late at night, which I almost never do. So today I slept in until midday.

It wasn't a really productive day, but I don't strive for constant productivity. I'd rather feel happy and connected than burn out trying to be productive all the time. And today I didn't feel my best, so I just took a day off studying for my exams.

I finished a puzzle I was working on. My father gave it to me as a gift and I think it's lovely. I want to put it in a picture frame and hang it in my room.

I also started an embroidery project. I'm not good at it yet, but I'm slowly learning needlework. Hopefully I will improve my abilities with practice.

Today's quote:

"It is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life" - J.R.R. Tokien

Every fun post on here that encourages people to have hobbies/be creative always gets an avalanche of "Some people are poor Karen" type reactions and respectfully, you're all super annoying. I've never lived above the poverty line and this is a list of hobbies I have that were cheap or entirely free:

Read books: Go to the library, lend a book from a friend

knitting, crochet, embroidery: Get some needles from the bargan store and ask around, people have leftovers from projects they'll happily give you. Thrift stores also often carry leftover fabric and other supplies. And talk about your hobby loud enough and an old lady will show up and gift you their whole collection, because there are way more old ladies with a closet full of wool than there are grandchildren who want to take up the hobby.

Origami/paper crafts: get some scrap paper and scissors, watch a youtube tutorial

walking: put on shoes open door

pilates/yoga/etc: get a mat or just use your carpet, watch a youtube tutorial

Houseplants: look online for people that swap plant cuttings. There are always people giving out stuff for free to get you started. If you're nice enough you'll probably get extra

gardening: You're gonna need some space for this one of course but you can just play around with seeds and cuttings from your grocery vegetables.

aquarium keeping is a bit of an obscure one but I got most of my stuff second hand for cheap or free and now I have a few thousand euro worth of material and plants.

drawing/art: You get very far just playing with bargan store materials. I did my entire art degree with mostly those.

writing: Rotate a cow in your head for free

cooking: again one you can make very expensive, but there are many budget recipes online for free. Look for African or Asian shops to get good rice and cheap spices.

Join a non-profit: Cities will have creative organisations who let you use woodworking machines or screen presses or laser cutters or 3D printers etc etc etc for a small fee. Some libraries also lend out materials.

candle making: You need some molds (cheap), wick, two old cooking pots for au bain marie melting and a ton of scrap candles, ask people to keep them aside for you.

a herbarium, flower pressing: Leaves are free, wildflowers too, ask if you can take from peoples gardens.

puzzles: thrift stores, your grandma probably

Citizen science: look for projects in your area or get the iNaturalist app

And lastly and most importantly: Share! Share your supllies, share your knowledge. Surround yourself with other creative people and before you know it someone will give you a pot of homemade jam and when you want to paint your kabinet someone will have leftover paint in just the right color and you can give them a homemade candle in return and everyone is having fun and building skills and friendships and not a cent is exchanged. We have always lived like this, it's what humans are build to do.

And all of it sure beats sitting behind a computer going "No stranger, I refuse to let myself have a good time."

Anyway I'm logging off bc I'm making some badges for a friend who cooked for me and then I'm going to fix some holes in everyones clothes.

Does anyone else have like seasonal hobbies? Because over the years you’ve picked up some hobbies, and then years later you pick it up again because you remember it was fun. And it is. But now you have another hobby to work on. But you already have like five on the pile, but now it’s six. And you just don’t have time to work on six hobbies consistently

#hobbies #shelti rambles #I’m currently back on art #I say nervously looking back at my afghan I’m no where near done with in the corner of my room #I look back towards you and I glimpse the glued up jigsaw puzzles I’ve yet to buy frames for to hang as art #My leg kicks the embroidery kit I bought in January I haven’t started on #A box falls off the shelf scattering a latch hook design I promised years ago I’d fashion into a pillow #The thick fiction novels scream within their still plastic bound place on the bookshelf #My computer flickers on opening the google drive folder containing wips #A ghost of a forgotten hobby yells in the background #its the oven it thirsts for sugar

haha what if after a marvel designer collection they make a star wars designer collection

#oh boy...#well that gives me a year to build a good profolio and try to get myself hired #/jk #every time i see a new designer collection princess release i'm like. puzzled face.#the aestethic is... explosive?#i'm worried not like i think they'd screw up but what if i want them all but can't afford it lol #it'd be a fun idea. just make sure they don't focus only on the burnette white women #i think they're slightly overpriced because they have less playability than a h*t toys #like. some people don't even take them out of the box #i can take upto $100 but $130 is a bit much for a display piece #might as well spend that on three playline i'd actually play with #take slave soka as an example to save brain work #what are you actually paying for?#she bare has any makeup and it's machine printed anyway so certain not the face #(doubt they'd make the lekku bendable)#so the clothes. and the next thing i'd say is: it doesn't even have embroidery! (pretentious #so if the doll doesnt' have proper metal work (not just plated plastic) and some pretty gems #i entertain the idea of a adult/older ahsoka figure but come on how's that gonna sell outside the hardcore fans #sw #myechoes
